"In the Event of Nuclear Attack..."
Hello folks, it's so good to see everyone back on the porch for
our weekly get-together. Make yourselves at home, now, and
let's chat…~smile~

Not a day goes by that my email box isn’t flooded with things
I’m supposed to be worrying about. Many of these concerns have
a Chicken Little feel, only these people know the sky is falling
because their “mother’s sister’s cousin-in-law’s uncle’s aunt had X
and Y happen to them and this isn’t just a forward and you have to
pass it along lest you be guilty of accelerating the extinction of
mankind.”
Whoa-- it’s powerful stuff! I swanee, many a day I’d crawl right back
into bed if I were the worrying sort; which I’m not. If anything worried
me, it’d be my inability to worry, which suggests that I don’t know
enough to worry, but, I’m not worried. I come from the tribe of Tigger
and I’m proud of it. Indeed, this is a character flaw to those dedicated
emailers trying to alert me to the dangers of __________. (You fill
in the blank.) Fortunately, many of these ominous emails have places
where I can donate to their cause to ease my mind or buy their
products to protect myself. Lucky me, or is that, lucky them?
Not that I’m questioning everyone’s motives. I’m sure the Chicago
woman who developed the gas mask brassiere did it for the good
of mankind. You haven’t heard?! That’d be the female undergarment
that’s ready to be deployed at the first sign of chemical attack, or
perhaps even the germs of a fellow human. When threatened, the
wearer can simply snatch off the undergarment and detach the individual
cups, which can now double as a gas mask—one for herself and one
for the lucky bystander of her choice. Bubba said if his Aunt Clydette
had one she could save half of the town all by herself, but I told him
that was flat out ugly and he should stop.
Besides, if anybody other than Uncle Amos buried his face there,
he would soon discover that a nuclear attack would be a much
preferable way to go!

I hope you enjoy your time at All Things Southern today. I'll be around
if you want to chat...
Hugs,
Shellie
